When to Trust and When to Walk Away

Life can be so challenging at times. I am not saying that as if I am owed anything or as if I expect it to be easy but when I say that I mean life can be a series of knowing “when to say when” so to speak. Allow me to elaborate further. With all of the uncertainty and disappointments that come about in life knowing when to trust can be an uncertain thing.
Most of us during our childhood years face the world blindly with no idea of all the setbacks and disappointments that will be encountered in the years to come. In those years it also seems friends are much easier to come by as well as trust for individuals.
The older we get and the more we grow the more difficult it is to put trust into anything. I am at a point in my life where I so greatly desire to share the hidden parts of myself but I often fear uncovering those parts. When I feel as though I have crossed paths with someone who wants to inquire and find out what exactly makes me Yanice. I try and wait for the right moment to proceed. I guess I struggle with knowing when the right moment is.
Over the years I have become increasingly reserved but at the same time I have a deeper longing to share myself. I believe in this world today this is something that many of us deal with therefore, that just makes me human. We all have fears, insecurities and doubt but the beautiful thing is identifying them and knowing that it is possible to work through them and continue to move forward.
